Chapter 350: A Bad Start
But a few days before the start of the new season, Inter Milan made another moth.It is said that he was dissatisfied with the team's introduction of Shi Hao, which resulted in the lack of non-European quotas, which prevented him from introducing his beloved Yaya Toure. It is also said that his performance in the warm-up match was too poor, and Suning Group looked down on him-according to Shi Hao and Zhang Jindong In a private call, I learned that it was the latter-team coach Mancini offered to resign.

So less than a week before the start of the new season, Inter Milan urgently changed their coach, and former Dutch international Frank De Boer took office.

On August 8, the 20-2016 season of the Italian Football League started.

In the early morning of August 8, BJ time, countless Chinese fans stayed up late to watch Inter Milan's first show of the season.

After ushering in strong support from Shi Hao, Candreva, Banega, Joao Mario, Ansaldi, etc., Inter Milan has experienced the pain of a coaching change. How good is this Nerazzurri team? Combat power?
Inter Milan's first game is an away game against underdog Chievo.De Boer formed his usual 433-[-]-[-] formation, and Shi Hao appeared on the left winger.Before the game, the fans put up a huge portrait of Shi Hao, and countless "Welcome Home" slogans, which moved Shi Hao a lot.

But the progress of the game was not satisfactory.That night, Inter Milan played very hard on the field, but it felt like X**T, the players ran blindly, the field was full of loopholes, the defenders did not protect each other, the offense lacked organization, Once 0:2 behind Chievo.

If Shi Hao hadn't scored twice in the second half, maybe De Boer would have ruined his debut.

But such a performance must not make fans buy it.The team spent 1.8 million euros on signings, and also bought Shi Hao, the Golden Globe winner, not for the embarrassment of kicking the underdogs.

A week later, back at San Siro, Inter Milan’s situation remained unchanged. Two long-range shots went through the goal. Although Shi Hao and Icardi’s goals tenaciously tied Palermo in the end, this was not the case. The Inter Milan fans expected to see.Inter Milan, which shouted the slogan "Win the Championship" before the start of the season, became the laughing stock of people.

After the game, Shi Hao returned to China to participate in the top 12 of the Asian preliminaries. On September 9st in Seoul, Shi Hao opened the scoring with a free kick in the opening minute and a half, helping the Chinese team lead South Korea 1-1, but before the end of the first half, captain Zheng Zhi's own goal brought the game back to the starting line.

In the second half, the South Korean team stepped up their attack. Li Qinglong and Gu Zizhe scored successively, pushing the Chinese team to the edge of the cliff.But at this critical moment, the role of the star is reflected.First, Shi Hao dribbled the ball for 50 meters and then assisted Jun Yingzhi to score. Then Jun Yingzhi made a successful steal in the frontcourt and scored a goal.

The away game did not make Gao Hongbo conservative. He replaced young player Zhang Yuning at the last moment and added a striker. In stoppage time, it was Zhang Yuning who pushed Shi Hao's free kick into the goal of the South Korean team, allowing China The team was able to overtake 4:3.This is also the first time that the Chinese team has defeated South Korea in 6 years.

After the game, the South Korean media expressed sourly that the South Korean team just lost to Shi Hao and Jun Yingzhi.

On September 9, the Chinese team returned to their home court and defeated Iran, the strongest opponent in the group, 6:2 in Shenyang. Shi Hao was in good form and scored twice.

After the two games, the Chinese team temporarily ranked first in the group, and the situation is very good.

However, when he returned to the domestic arena in Italy, Shi Hao was not so proud. In the 9:11 away game against Pescara on September 3, Shi Hao hit the goal post with a free kick, and finally got nothing and only contributed one assist.

9月15日晚欧联杯（欧罗巴联赛）K组的比赛中，国际米兰主场1:2不敌土耳其的贝夏普尔，爆出一个大冷门。石浩虽然助攻伊卡尔迪得分，自己的4次射门却有2次击中门柱。

Inter Milan fans can be said to be one of the most impatient fans in the world. After Frank De Boer led the team to play only 4 games, Meazza had sporadic calls for "De Boer dismissed get out of class".

Frank De Boer's face was livid. This young coach who led the team at Ajax to win the Dutch League One for four consecutive times was full of a sense of crisis.

And the time to test him finally came. On September 9, the fourth round of the league, the Italian Derby started.De Boer thought it was the end of the world when Lichtsteiner broke through the gate guarded by Handanovic.

But today is not destined to be the day of his death.

With Inter Milan trailing 0:1, Shi Hao, who was closely marked in the second half, failed to score a goal himself, but staged a hat-trick of assists. Icardi scored twice, Candreva made a lore, and the Nerazzurri The Legion defeated Juventus 3:1 at home.

And this game also eased De Boer's call to dismiss get out of class a little.Many fans said after the game that this is the best game Inter Milan has played in the past five years. This is a game in which Juventus's spiritual will, tactical thinking, and player skills have all surpassed Juventus, showing the high level of the Champions League. If it can be maintained, winning the championship is definitely not a dream!

On September 9, Shi Hao staged his first hat-trick after returning to Serie A. Inter Milan beat Empoli 22-4 in an away game and won two consecutive victories in the new season.But on September 0th, Inter Milan was beaten back to its original shape. Although Shi Hao and Icardi both scored goals, they were still drawn by visiting Bologna at the San Siro.

On September 9, Inter Milan brought their poor performance to the Europa League.Due to the away game against Roma in the league this weekend, Frank wanted to preserve his strength in Prague and let the main lineup take turns. Icardi, Shi Hao and other main players did not play. As a result, the game lasted only 30 minutes, and Kadlec scored. For the second time, Inter Milan in the away game fell behind Sparta Prague by two goals!
In the second half, both Shi Hao and Icardi went into battle. In the 55th minute, Eder's oblique plug allowed the extremely fast Shi Hao to throw off all the defenders of Sparta Prague, and scored a single goal.In the 74th minute, Shi Hao took a free kick in the frontcourt. Icardi grabbed the spot and scored with a header.However, Nokia then went off with two yellows, and Sparta seized this free kick opportunity, and Holek took the lead again.

Inter Milan fans quit.This season the team has invested a huge amount of money in signings. They not only want the league championship, but also the Europa League championship!And now Inter Milan has lost both games in the Europa League, and the group is at the bottom!
De Boer was also embarrassed.Once won four consecutive championships at Ajax, he is definitely not a fluke success, but his time in coaching the team is too short to implement his style of play into the team.

So apart from the 2:1 victory over Juventus, where Inter Milan was united and performed at a super level, the Nerazzurri's other games this season were lackluster. Even if they won, it was purely relying on the stars Ability to win, without too many bright spots.
